His favorite time of day is early morning. He likes the color lavender. Chris Buck was born in Toronto in 1964. When he was twelve years old, his father took him on a darkroom course with his older brother. Chris was coming down with the flu at the time and would use his break time to vomit. His first photographs were of buffalo. At twenty-two he studied with Dave Heath (A Dialogue With Solitude, 1965) who suggested that perhaps Chris would be better satisfied as a performer. Chris argued "No, no, I want to be a photographer, really." So Chris really tried from then on. His professional start came with the music publications The Nerve and Graffiti. Some noteworthy photo subjects from this period include Johnny Thunders, Pussy Galore and Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chrétien. Chris moved to New York in the early 1990s. He soon started working with Julian Richards, with whom he had a shared affection for a sort-of-interesting English post-punk band. Julian has been awkwardly representing Chris (and a few other sort-of-interesting photographers) ever since. His clients include Esquire, Premiere, Entertainment Weekly, Fast Company, Flaunt, New York Times Magazine, IBM, Microsoft, Hewlett Packard, Nike and the American Indian College Fund. His photographs have won awards from the Society of Publication Designers, the Art Directors Club of New York, and the National Magazine Awards of Canada. His pictures appear regularly in the photography annuals of Communication Arts (1995, 1996, 1999, 2000, 2001), American Photography (1997, 1998, 1999, 2001) and Photo District News (2001). Chris Buck has been described as clever, and separately, damaged. Billy Joel put it best when he said, "You're fucked up. Do you want to shoot my next album cover?" < < Click on an Immortal Photographer.
